Import Raw Data

Procedure

Define vector of files to import:

files_to_import <- dir_ls(path = "data/raw")

for (i in seq_along(files_to_import)) {
  cat(i, "= ", files_to_import[i], "\n")
}
1
Store the file paths of our raw data within the data/raw directory in files_to_import
2
Print each file path with its index
1 =  data/raw/2024-02-28_dfs.RData 
2 =  data/raw/2024-02-28_ksf-clam-growth.xlsx 
3 =  data/raw/2024-02-28_ksf-compiled-data.xlsx 
4 =  data/raw/2024-02-28_ksf-oyster-cylinder-growth.xlsx 
5 =  data/raw/2024-02-28_profile-data.xlsx 
6 =  data/raw/2024-02-28_water-samples.xlsx 
7 =  data/raw/2024-02-28_weather-data.xlsx 
8 =  data/raw/2024-03-01_dfs-no-profiles.RData 
9 =  data/raw/2024-03-01_dfs_no_profiles.RData 
10 =  data/raw/2024-03-04_dfs-no-profiles.RData 
11 =  data/raw/~$2024-02-28_weather-data.xlsx 

Use the purrr::map() function to iteratively import files in the files_to_import vector except for the profiles data and .RData files:

@iteratively-import-raw-data Code Chunk Execution Warning

The @iteratively-import-raw-data code chunk should only be ran once when raw data is updated because it takes long to execute. Therefore, run the @efficiently-load-raw-data code chunk instead to easily import up-to-date raw data.

dfs_no_profiles <- map(files_to_import[c(2:4, 6, 7)], import_list)
current_date <- format(Sys.Date(), "%Y-%m-%d")
save(dfs_no_profiles, file = paste0("data/raw/", current_date, "_dfs-no-profiles.RData"))
Ensure the Correct Index Value is Inputted Below

Refer to the output of the files_to_import data object to ensure you are inputting the correct index value corresponding to the file path that needs to be loaded.

Efficiently import up-to-date raw data:

load(files_to_import[10])

Rename datasets:

We will always use snakecase when naming our data objects and functions (e.g., data_object_name or function_name()).

names(dfs_no_profiles) <- gsub("data/raw/2024-02-28_|\\.xlsx$|\\.xls$", "", 
                               files_to_import[c(2:4, 6, 7)])
names(dfs_no_profiles) <- gsub("-", "_", names(dfs_no_profiles))
names(dfs_no_profiles)
1
Remove prefixes and file extensions
2
Replace hyphens with underscores
3
Check if names were outputted correctly
[1] "ksf_clam_growth"            "ksf_compiled_data"         
[3] "ksf_oyster_cylinder_growth" "water_samples"             
[5] "weather_data"              

Rename each sheet within each raw dataset to be lowercased and replace spaces with underscores:

dfs_no_profiles <- map(dfs_no_profiles, ~ set_names(.x, gsub(" ", "_", tolower(names(.x)))))

Create separate datasets by specifying the Excel sheet from each spreadsheet we want to tidy:

ksf_clam_growth_data <- dfs_no_profiles$ksf_clam_growth$sheet1
ksf_compiled_data <- dfs_no_profiles$ksf_compiled_data$full_data
ksf_oyster_cylinder_growth_data <- dfs_no_profiles$ksf_oyster_cylinder_growth$sheet1
water_samples_data <- dfs_no_profiles$water_samples$data_overview
weather_data <- dfs_no_profiles$weather_data$weather_ksf
tidal_data <- dfs_no_profiles$ksf_compiled_data$tides

We want to combine multiple sheets within the profiles Excel spreadsheet into one, therefore, we will import it separately:

sheets_to_import <- c("L1", "L2", "L3", "L4")

profiles_data <- profiles_data <- map_dfr(sheets_to_import, function(sheet_name) {
  import(files_to_import[5], which = sheet_name)
}) %>%
  bind_rows()

Merge Tidied Datasets

first_merge <- reduce(list(ksf_clam_growth_data_tidied, ksf_oyster_cylinder_growth_data_tidied), 
                      full_join, by = c("date", "weight", "growth_pct"))

Export Tidied Datasets

Export tidied datasets to CSV into data/tidied folder:

source("code/functions/export_to_csv.R")

dfs_to_export <- list(
  ksf_clam_growth_data_tidied = ksf_clam_growth_data_tidied,
  ksf_compiled_data_tidied = ksf_compiled_data_tidied,
  ksf_oyster_cylinder_growth_data_tidied = ksf_oyster_cylinder_growth_data_tidied,
  water_samples_data_tidied = water_samples_data_tidied,
  profiles_data_tidied = profiles_data_tidied
)

imap(dfs_to_export, ~ export_to_csv(.x, .y, "data/tidied"))
1
List of dataframes we want to export as CSV files
2
Iterate the export_to_csv(df, df_name, dir_path) function over each dataframe. .x refers to the dataframe. .y refers to the name of the dataframe. These are passed to export_to_csv() function along with the desired directory path.

Export merged final data set into data/outputs folder.
